What other sport allows "lower" teams into top events? I love seeing an unheard of guy from a "local" team take it to the big guns, but I agree that if you want to do the big events you should be part of the top tier. Some of the WT guys are super fit, crappy bike riders, but less racers might reduce crashes.
